As an extra treat for you, we even have [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food & DK - “Now, Listen!” (The Director’s Cut)
The year is 2000 and Ninja Tune is a decade old. To celebrate, a new compilation of the Ninja Cuts series is in production, featuring tracks from artists past, present and future. Also in the planning is the first volume in a new mix CD series based around Coldcut’s Solid Steel show, to be included [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut - Essential Mix
The clocks just went back, so what do we do here? Send them forward! We’ve pulled out a more recent show to add to the Vintage Steel selections, but recent doesn’t equal bad… far from it. When Coldcut were offered up a 2 hour slot for the BBC Radio 1’s Essential mix in 2006, they [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food (PC & Strictly Kev) - Solid Steel 97-99
DJ Food (PC & Strictly Kev): Solid Steel 97-99
DK’s choice this time round and he sums up these selections thus: “These are probably my favourite Solid Steel mixes, early days in the show for me and some great ‘moments’ in them….” He obviously liked them because as well as appearing on the 19/10/97, 06/06/99 and [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Herbie Hancock/David Axelrod Interviews
Solid Steel - The Herbie Hancock Interview (TX: 01/04/2002)
To say DK and I were excited about this meeting would be an understatement of galactic proportions only equalled by the size of Herbie’s afro in the seventies. From our first encounter with him via ‘Rockit’ (along with virtually every B-Boy-to-be outside of the States in the [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut, PC - Solid Wood
This week we take a more organic stance on proceedings with a little known treasure nicknamed Solid Wood by PC who, with Jon More, decided to present an entire show from a less electronic viewpoint. Jazz, African, Indian, classical, roots and world - or should that be ‘other world’ - music, all feature heavily instead [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Ken Nordine - Talking All That Word Jazz (2008 Edition)
“You may not know Ken Nordine by name or face, but you’ll almost certainly recognize his voice.” A very special outing for the Vintage Solid Steel collection for your listening enjoyment, originally broadcast in 1998 but extended and edited for 2008 by an exacting Strictly Kev who doesn’t know when to say ‘it’s finished!’ Also [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DK - More From The Vaults
Time is precious as they say. We say - never a truer word spoken. We’re keeping it direct and to the point this time round, not too much in the way of reading material (from the worldy wordsmith Strictly Kev, as always)… but it’s about the tunes, you all shout! Good show, as DK’s back [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: Coldcut - Best Of The K Mixes Part 2
We return to the K Mixes archive this week and dig out four storming sets from Coldcut and PC including Old School Hip Hop in the disco rap mould, cut ups galore as only Coldcut do, a Jazz Rap, a Native Tongues era Hip Hop mix and a Go Go session from PC. All I [...]
Vintage Solid Steel: DJ Food Vs DJ Vadim
Vintage Steel brings vintage DJ Vadim. A big-hitter on the dusty beats and breaks scene back in the mid 90s, Russia’s finest carved a niche for himself early on by utilising unique sounds that other producers hadn’t thought to load into their samplers back then - it seems Vadim had a lot of squeaky door [...]
